How many how you guys have an RPI air scoop?
I'm trying to design my own scoop, and I have some questions.
I don't know the exact dimensions of the scoop for a 530i. So that would help.

RPI is a respected vendor here, so your inquiry may fall on deaf ears.

but this homemade looks kinda cheesy.
Im trying to do something more professional, out of 100% aluminum, good quality stuff. My dad's company makes gates, so I should have all the materials at hand, He's also a professional welder, so he's helping me out.
that's why I ask from you guys, if you any manuals from your original RPI scoops with the design or dimensions that I could use as reference.
